the eac is working on advancing those standards. they had put in the hands of state and local election officials. there is a very aggressive fight against any attempt to federalize elections. given the national conversation we have about election interference what has been done since that time. there was initially a lot of pushback when they try to offer assistance to states and counties. gift understand that county election officials don't have big budgets. we never really had well-funded elections in this country. they don't have the money to hire full-time it staff. and so what the department department department of homeland security offered to do prior to 2016 and subsequently is to provide their computer's of purity expertise in skinning scanning those internet facing systems. they can only work with states and counties. they had worked with about two dozen states in doing scans of their websites. they had found vulnerabilities. they are sharing information intelligence with them. the indicates that they are trying to get into

go to the eac's website and we can direct you.if you go towards an un -- you are basically getting the notice from someone that you do not know and believing that. you want to make sure that your sources are correct and that you exercise your right. john: if i could turn to matt, hat andh your current put on your earlier hat -- these registration databases on the way that we can register, they have transformed the way in which voters can interact with the system. and also, the way we vote, we use these systems for many more things. we have live connection to people to show up, they have options for where they can vote, and perhaps some states, they can register on the spot. they are doing these complicated withs, and yet withou that advance, there are the concerns about security. that was the one place that i think really, we are going to be concerned with and i want to make sure we protect, so tell us a little bit about the benefits and a little bit more about how we are going to protect those systems and what is important. matt:

so the eac issues guidance on that. and then, you know, just moving forward to ensure that registration is just the first step. and that we want to ensure that if you register then it is your choice to actually vote. but voters have a piece of that as well, to ensure that they are registered to vote and that their registration is up to date. because i believe it's -- i might have the numbers wrong but up to one third of the electorate moves every four to five years. so ensuring that your registration is constantly up to date. making sure you have the correct forms of identification if you need that when you go to the polls. and this is the biggest piece i always say is the foreign actors were looking to put confusion in our elections not by manipulating votes but by manipulating voters. so know what the source of of which you are getting information from. the two secretaries of state that are up here both have website that will tell you dates of when the elections are and requirements that are needed. go directly to the

there are standards, but in addition to giving money and creating the eac, mandated the eac would create new standards for voting machines. those have been done. new standards were created. the last standards were created in 2005, more than a decade old. obviously, computing has advanced much further than that. computer security has advanced much further than that. but the voting machines on the market have been tested and certified to a decade-old standard. the security level is low. the eac is working on advancing those standards and producing new standards. but that's the extent of any federalization that we're talking about. congress has separated elections, put it in the hands of state and local election officials. there's a very aggressive fight against any attempt to federalize elections. host: given the national conversation with had since the 2016 election with election interference, what's been done since that time? kim: there was initially a lot of pushback when the department of homeland security tried offer distance to state and local counties. county election officials don'

i will give so much credit to the eac and to dhs. was a masteratt stroke because here's someone who already had a relationship and developed trust with election officials around the country. they have been making an effort. meeting with us at the local level. coming to our meetings. is that we do here. it really has, and i understand of i could be wrong, so any you want to correct me, please do, but we set up our government scored meeting councils which i am a founding member and you are a founding member as well, and we set it up and had our etc. quickerplace, than any other government coordinating council or any other of the infrastructures which just goes to show you not only the commitment of the mating councils which are secretaries of state and county clerks, but also our federal partners to making sure they relationship is working the way it should for you -- should. john: if we could do this for another 59 minutes, it would be fine for -- fine. why is it that important? becauseportant information is being shared and being sha

to hope giving money in addition to creating the eac, mandated that the eac would help create new standards for voting machines. so those have been done, they were created, the last standard created in 2005. more than a decade old. obviously competing has advanced much for than that. computer security has advanced much further than that. the voting machines that are currently on the market today, have been tested and certified to a decade old standard. the security level is very low. the eac is working on advancing those standards. that's really the extent of any kind of federalization that we are talking about. again, congress and constitution has separated elections, put it in the hands of state and local officials. there is a very aggressive fight against any attempt to federalize elections. >> giving the national camper station we've had since the 2016 election, about election interference, what has been done since then? >> there was a initially a lot of pushback when they tried to offer assistance to states of county. you have to understand that county election officials don't have big

i know that the election assistance commission, the eac at the federal level does certifications. we usually follow these recommendations and those are coming you know, for instance in our state and vermont one of the requirements that i have is that any tabulator that we pick must be either eac certified or certified by another state such as connecticut reviewed at the university of connecticut cybersecurity unit. >> secretary condos, before we lose you, we want to talk about early voting. what are the rules in your state? >> in vermont back in 2009 when you, or the overseas military vote act passed, to receive their ballots up to 45 days ahead of time. vermont decided our military and overseas, it was good enough for all vermonters. we started 45 days ahead. this day was december 21st and we go right up until the day before the election and then we have same-day voter registration. >> what do vermonters need to prevent to vote in vermont? >> you just proclaim, just say their name when they show up at the polls. there was no voter i.d. requirements of the state of vermont. you kn

the problem is it weakens the eac and all they can do is suggest things to the states. they can create standards for voting machines and then the voting machines get tested by that standard. they can't force states to use on machines that of an tested and certified if they get a lot of pushback from the states about the standards. they get a lot of pushback from the states about a lot of things. really the e.a.c. has been a weak in body. >> host: hasn't been effort to update the help america act or to increase the funding? >> guest: many times. the primary thing that is been dumped the primary update there's been attempted about five different times was to alter, require states to use on machines that have paper ballots or a paper trail and also to mandate those audits. that has never gotten any traction at all on capitol hill. there's even a current law, secure elections act, that was attempt to do the same thing and again it cut water death and it's not have any movement. >> host: what is the concern about having a paper trail? >> guest: i don't know, integrity of ele
